4 RHINO HERO

There’s little more satisfying than building a towering house of cards – and little more devastating than watching it all come crashing down. Add in a superhero rhinoceros and you have the recipe for a seriously good time. The aim in Rhino Hero is to take it in turns to grow a skyscraper by placing roof and wall cards, almost like reverse Jenga. Special cards allow you to perform new actions, including moving the titular animal to a new location in the tower – but make sure his weight doesn’t make it crumble! It’s an ace little game for the young and old alike, and a darn sight cheaper than many other – and inferior – kids’ games.
